Usually, milkshakes are made of milk, fruit syrups, fruits, and ice cream. There are different types of milkshakes, that vary in flavor, taste, color, and ingredients. This drink is served in tall glasses, along with toppings. In some regions, ice cream is not used in milkshakes. However, this cold, thick, and sweet beverage is very popular, and is easily available in almost all restaurants. You can prepare milkshakes at home without much difficulty.
